Windows Mobile 6 for Palm Treo 700wx (Verizon)

I'm sorry if this is similar to other posts, but I didn't find any I was looking for specifically.
Up until Christmas Eve I had a Palm Treo 700wx from Verizon with WM5 on it update 1.22.  On Christmas Eve my phone pretty much became useless.  Verizon tech support could not resolve the problem so they sent me to a Verizon store to get a replacement.  This phone now has WM6 (I use this term loosely I'll explain later) update 1.24.
Ok, so great WM6 I think.  Need to learn new stuff some things are in different places and some stuff is just plain different and new GREAT!!!  Then while surfing the web to get myself knowledgeable in the ways of WM6 I start finding myself to become very very disappointed.  I find that most of the joys of WM6 are missing.  Yeah great I think where are they.  I see talk of a Task Manager that actually looks like the Windows XP Task Manager (I can't find this on my phone).  I hear talk of these neat things called plug-ins (anyone know where they are?)...  I hear this thing about My Desktop ummm is that supposed to have replaced the Today Screen, because I can't find that on my phone.  It seems to me that Palm has rolled out a bastardized version of WM5/WM6 and labeled it as WM6 this is quite disappointing.
Can anyone tell me how to get on my phone what is seen is this video link: http://video.msn.com/video.aspx?mkt=en-us&vid=44589ab6-7674-4730-8fb0-ea730631fd77 this is supposed to be a video from Microsoft highlighting the features of WM6 with Microsoft engineers doing the highlighting.  But I can't find half of this stuff on my Palm phone.

Hello slvrmoontiger and welcome to the Palm forums.
The guys in the video are talking about Windows Mobile 6.1.  Your Treo 700wx now has Windows Mobile 6.0, the same as the Treo 750.  The featutes of Windows Mobile 6.1 are not available in the 6.0 Professional release.

  • Can't login to AOL - Palm Treo 700wx Verizon

    It used to work fine, however recently it won't.  Using Palm Treo 700wx, Internet Explorer - I go to m.aol.com.  I put my username and password in.  It says 'locating' and then does nothing.  Screen stays the same.  Does anyone have any suggestions on what to try?  Verizon was no help.  It's driving me nuts!  Thanks in advance.

    I would try clearing your cache and cookies in IE from menu, tools, options, select memory tab, delete files, on the security tab , choose to clear cookies. Try again to browes out to you AOL URL. You could also try a restart on the device using the following steps:
    Performing a soft reset
    A soft reset is similar to restarting a

    responding or you have trouble
    synchronizing with your computer, a soft

  • Intermitte​nt Calendar Sync, Outlook 2007, Exchange 2003, Windows Mobile 6, Palm Treo Pro.

    Hello,
    We are having a problem with a couple of our devices, one being a Palm Treo Pro.
    The users have noticed that some of the calendar appointments they receive are not always updating in either their outlook, or on their device, it is apparently random as to whether it updates to the device and not outlook or vice versa.
    That is as much detail as I currently have; I am asking them to supply more observations as I know this doesn't give us alot to go on but thought I would ask in case someone else has experienced similar issues.
    The other thing I noticed is that the windows update tool fails to work with the following message: "Connection to the update server not available. Check data connection setting and ensure device date and time are correct."
    The date and time are correct (live in the UK) and they can access the internet and emails on the device to connection settings must be working.
    Any help would be much appreciated.
    Thank you,
    Marc

  • Palm Treo 700wx sync with Palm Desktop

    Newbie here, so please excuse if this is already in here somewhere!  I've been using Palm Desktop (v4.0.1) syncing with a Sony handheld device (Clie).  The Clie died, and I purchased a used Palm Treo 700wx (Sprint) for both cell phone use and as a PDA.  Darn if I can find anywhere how to sync the Palm Desktop with the Treo 700wx.  Am I missing something somewhere?

    Hello melemiller and welcome to the Palm forums.
    The Treo 700wx, running the Windows Mobile operating system, can only sync to Microsoft Outlook.  You will need export the data out of the Sony edition of Palm Desktop and import it into Outlook and then install the Microsoft ActiveSync 4.5 software on your computer to sync the Treo to Outlook.  If you are using Windows Vista, you need to use the Windows Mobile Device Center that is included as part of Vista to sync with Outlook.

  • Treo 700wx (Verizon) AOL Email: How to Delete Email

    I have AOL setup on my Treo running Windows Mobile 5.0.  Every time I delete an email from my Treo, it will repopulate the email after the next sync.  How do I get the email to stay deleted?  Very Frustrating.
    Post relates to: Treo 700wx (Verizon)

    I did try that link.  When I enter my email address it tells me there is no known yahoo account associated with it.
    I called Verizon Tech help today got transferred 4 times and no one was able to help nor did they understand my issue.  I also had trouble understanding their accents.
    At this point I'd be happy to just unlink yahoo from my verizon.net account but no body seems to understand or be able to help.  I explained that there appears to be a defect on the web site when I click change password in verizon/yahoo email page it takes me to a Yahoo page with my verizon email address prepopulated as the login id.  When i enter my verizon.net password the credentials fail.  Then I click the 'can't log in link' which prompts me for my email address associated with a yahoo account.  The response is there is no account.  I am in a perpetual circle.
    Its amazing that Verizon can engineer the system, build the GUI but the suppor people don't even understand what a bug is.  All they want to do is reset my password.  We've done that 10 tmes but it doesn't seem to carry over to the yahoo portal. 
    I also understand Verizon no longer uses yahoo email with new customers which may explain why this integration and support is broken down.  This gets me back to wanting to divoce my account from yahoo but folks on the support end don't understand what I'm trying  to do.  After the 4th transfer and silence after I explained the entire situation I told them to forget it, as I'll create a gmail account.  Probably better off anyway siince they support imap.

  • Alert Settings - Treo 700wx Verizon

    Though I have a check box to make an alert repeat it is grayed out.  Most any phone I have ever had or used could be set up to beep at a set interval when there is a voicemail waiting.  So far I have been unable to make this one do that.
    Post relates to: Treo 700wx (Verizon)

    This is the same for all windows mobile devices. You will need a 3rd party program to do what you are asking. Such as Treo Alert, Phone Alarm. Those are the ones I know of. There could be others that are better.

  • Trouble turning on the screen on my Treo 700wx (Verizon)

    I have a situation that Verizon thinks is related to low memory availability on my Treo. I disagree. I have to hit the 'end call/power off' button repeatedly to get my screen to turn on. The backlight on the keyboard comes on fine and the screen shows signs of life sometimes, but most of the time I just get a black or dark gray screen (no today screen). Soft resets seem to do the job, but I sometimes have to do that 2 or 3 times.
    I get phone calls but I can't see who is calling me since the screen never fully recovers from 'sleep'. I rely on this phone for work and it not only hinders my effectiveness and poses a risk while driving but it also makes me look unprofessional!
    I have removed programs but still have the problem. Currently, my settings show 62.95 mb total space in storage on the phone, 36.59 mb in use, and 26.36 mb free. The total program memory is 57.45 mb, 15.22 mb in use, and 42.23 mb free. With all this space free, I just had the same problem and had to soft reset the phone to get it working again.
    Please let me know if any of the following programs have a known issue with this phone, and should I remove any of them:
    Astraware Sudoku
    Palm Updinfo
    Palm PayldMatchdll
    Spb Backup
    TomTom Navigator
    Sync Client
    Astraware Cubis
    These are still installed on the phone. Please assist with this MOST frustrating situation!!!!!
    Post relates to: Treo 700wx (Verizon)

    No, the issue was not resolved really. The only solution Verizon could finally offer was to replace the phone. I received a new Treo 700wx next day and shipped the one with problems back to them. That part of the process was very easy. I have not had a moment's trouble since then with the replacement and I run all the same applications I did before. In fact, I restored everything from a backup of the old phone to the new one. No problems. I still do not know what caused the original phone to malfunction, but I would be willing to bet it was related to the download/update I had to do shortly after I bought the phone. The phone's op system had to be upgraded from 1.20 (I think) to 1.22. The new phone came with 1.22 installed from Palm/Verizon, so it was clean from the start.
    Hope that helps!

  • Newly activated Palm Treo 700wx unable to make calls

    Just activated an old Treo 700wx and I am able to use the internet but unable to make calls or receive text messages. Just ends the call right after it began. Tried hard reset, soft reset, re-activating... nothing.

    I suggest you go to the HP - Palm web site and to the community forums there. You will see a thread how Syniverse, a subsidiary of Altel, ATT, Verizon, et. al changed their coding schemes and that the Palm Treo 700WX can't accomodate the new scheme. I contacted the CEO of Verizon Wireless and they fixed it for me only.

    Post relates to: Treo 700wx (Verizon)

    I do apoligize that is only for palm os devices. I kind of spaced there. Lets go through basic set up of your device to ensure you are trying to connect the devices properly. Also about how far apart are you holding the devices? Have you tried moving them closer?
    To setup bluetooth pairing to your headset
    On your Bluetooth accessory, turn on the Bluetooth feature and make the device discoverable. Refer to the accessory's documentation to learn how.
    On your smartphone: press Start . Select settings, then Connections, then Bluetooth.
    Check the boxes for "Turn on Bluetooth" and "Make this device discoverable."
    Select the Devices tab at the bottom of the screen.
    Tap "New Partnership" to search for other Bluetooth wireless devices.
    You'll see a list of available devices in range. Highlight the device you want, then select Next.
    If the device has a connection option, it will appear on the next screen. Select Finish. Now the devices will see each other when they're turned on and within range

  • Palm Treo 700wx Anoying "W-Fi Warning"

    Thank you in advance to anyone that can help!

    The message you are receiving is not something you can disable, that I am aware of.
    Try turning off the cell radio by pressing the red phone key until it turns off the cell service. Then try to setup the wi-fi card again.
    If that doesn't work, you may want to contact Verizon. I found this on the internet regarding the wi-fi card in a Palm Treo 700wx phone.

    Have you tried to do a regular sync from your palm to your computer?
    After installing the Palm Desktop cd onto your pc, you need to click on the hot sync button (it is one of the applications you will find listed on your device) and then click on the middle hot sync icon. Your device will start to connect to your computer and all your info will be backed up on your pc when the hot sync is done.
